Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This pilot study is a between-groups design to compare a novel integrated behavioral video telehealth intervention for heavy drinking PLWH with chronic pain to a control condition. Forty-eight heavy drinking patients in HIV-care with moderate or greater pain will be recruited for the study. Following baseline assessment, participants will be randomly assigned to either intervention or control conditions. Participants will complete assessment measures of heavy drinking and pain interference/severity at 3 and 6 months post-baseline. Secondary alcohol outcomes will include alcohol-related consequences
