Summary

Our proposal "Centralized Off-Site Adherence Enhancement Program" or "CARE" will develop and test an effective behavioral adherence intervention program for HIV patients with alcohol and/or substance abuse problems. This project will develop and pilot test a novel program to help patients with alcohol and/or substance abuse problems take their medications as prescribed. The intervention will be delivered by phone, and utilize electronic monitoring of medication-taking, so patients can be treated by therapists from any geographic distance. To safely monitor data collected for this study, we have laid out a detailed Data Safety Monitoring Plan, which will cover all the issues required by NIDA.

Conditions

  • HIV/AIDS, Medication Adherence

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

cognitive-behavioral therapy

. Reinforcement for medication-taking will be wired to debit cards that patients will be given to receive the payments. This contingent reinforcement of medication-taking will be coupled with twelve sessions of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) conducted by phone, also assisted by the website which will generate CBT-related text messages, reminders and scheduling information from a menu of choices negotiated by the patient and therapist.
