Summary

This study tests whether a telemedicine program that combines brief counseling with cognitive-behavioral therapy can help people with HIV reduce unhealthy alcohol use and improve their overall health. About 308 participants in Alabama will receive either the combined program or brief counseling alone. The goal is to see if the extra support leads to less drinking and better HIV outcomes.
