We are conducting a study to find the best number of counseling sessions needed to help people with HIV stick to their treatment. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) can weaken the immune system, and ART (Antiretroviral Therapy) is a treatment that helps control the virus. This study will help us understand how many sessions are needed for different people to keep the virus in check and at what cost. Participants will be randomly placed in one of two groups: one gets counseling until their virus is controlled, and the other gets five sessions. We will check how well the virus is controlled after 12 months. Only people who have HIV, are on ART, and have trouble sticking to their treatment can join. Those without phone or internet access cannot participate.
- Duration: 12 months with follow-ups.
- Two groups: flexible counseling or fixed five sessions.
- Participants must have phone and internet access.
