Implementing Depression and Adherence Treatment

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a core set and enhanced set of implementation strategies in increasing the reach of evidence-based treatments to patients with HIV and depression. The main questions it aims to answer are: What proportion of patients start an evidence-based treatment for depression (reach)? What percentage of patients show clinical improvement in depression and what percentage attain viral undetectability within one year (effectiveness)? Researchers will compare high and low reach clinics to further inform tailored implementation strategies for uptake and maintenance. Clinics will be randomized into one of two study arms: core versus enhanced strategies. In both arms, core strategies will be utilized. Enhanced clinics will also receive more resource-intensive training.
