Adherence to ART — Examples

Examples of incentives and enablers include:
  • Vouchers for clients/caregivers to cover transportation expenses to attend clinics or for providers to reach clients
     
  • Food baskets for clients/caregivers if they are adherent to treatment norms and make clinic visits
     
  • Rewards for community treatment supervisors who properly supervise clients or provide services to caregivers
     
  • Bonuses for providers based on their overall performance or specific adherence to treatment or supervision standards

The distinction between an incentive and enabler is often not clear; we therefore do not ask you to make a distinction as part of your response.

What is important is that the incentive or enabler stimulates the client, caregiver, or provider to act as desired so that more individuals are coming forward for testing, more HIV-positive individuals are beginning treatment, more mothers/caregivers are accepting and ensuring completion of preventive therapy (in the case of PMTCT), and more individuals are consistently adhering to treatment (in the case of ART).
