研究组 & 干预措施
Telehealth Intervention
Study participants will be randomized into either the control or experimental group. Participants in the intervention group will receive routine care which will follow the schedule from previous adolescent PrEP studies where participants are recommended to follow up at 4, 8, and 12 weeks and then every 3 months following initiation of PrEP. This group will also receive SMS texting every 4 weeks between in-person visits (weeks 16, 20, 28,32, 40, 44) reminding them to pick up their medication. The experimental group will also be seen in follow up every month for the first 3 months and then spaced out to visits every 3 months. The SMS texting will occur every 4 weeks between in-person visits, the experimental group will also have 2 tele-health visits (which will be conducted within a participant's home using an app) that will occur every 4 weeks between each of the traditional in-person visits to provide more frequent monitoring and counseling regarding adherence.
干预措施: Telehealth Coaching (Other)
Routine Care
