Clinical Trial Summary

This is an open-trial pilot study in which adult methadone maintenance treatment patients who are living with HIV but are not engaged in HIV primary care (i.e., missed appointments, non-adherence to medication) will be recruited to participate in a HIV primary care engagement study.

Primary	Acceptability of Intervention	Acceptability of the intervention will be measured using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) scale.	30 days
Primary	Feasibility of Intervention	Feasibility of the intervention will be assessed focusing on study implementation, including recruitment and attrition rates.	30 days
Secondary	Efficacy of the intervention	Preliminary efficacy of the intervention will be measured using the HIV Treatment Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale (HIV-ASES) and the HIV appointment adherence questionnaire.	30 days
