About this trial

Cigarette smoking is an important cause of illness and death among persons with HIV (PWH). This project will study the impact of adding contingency management (use of financial rewards) to receiving medications and counseling on promoting smoking abstinence and other health outcomes among PWH. As treatments will be provided by clinical pharmacists and other team members in HIV clinics, factors relevant for implementing this model to inform real-world practice will also be evaluated.
