People living with HIV (PLWH) often experience mental health concerns as well as difficulties with medication adherence; they also report barriers to receipt of health services. Telephone-delivered interventions can overcome some of these barriers. To obtain patients' perspectives on telephone-delivered behavioral health services, we conducted a qualitative study with patients who participated in one of two telephone-delivered interventions (mindfulness training, health coaching) in a research trial. Patients ( = 42; age = 46 years, 50% female, 26% Black) participated in semi-structured qualitative interviews after completing the study. They identified several advantages (e.g., being able to schedule sessions more flexibly compared to in-person appointments, ease of developing rapport with interventionists) as well as occasional challenges of phone delivery (e.g., network connectivity). Overall, PLWH view telephone-delivery as a convenient and flexible method to engage in behavioral health interventions.
HIV 感染者（PLWH）经常会遇到心理健康问题和药物依从性困难；他们也报告了获得卫生服务的障碍。电话传递的干预措施可以克服其中的一些障碍。为了了解患者对电话传递的行为健康服务的看法，我们对参加了一项研究试验中的两种电话传递干预措施（正念训练、健康指导）的患者进行了定性研究。患者（n=42；年龄=46 岁，50%为女性，26%为黑人）在完成研究后参加了半结构化的定性访谈。他们确定了一些优势（例如，与面对面预约相比，能够更灵活地安排会议，更容易与干预者建立融洽关系）以及电话传递偶尔面临的挑战（例如，网络连接）。总体而言，PLWH 认为电话传递是一种方便灵活的方式，可以参与行为健康干预。
