Clinic allocation and participant enrollment. Notes: a Clinics were not eligible if they had a catchment area under 6,000 inhabitants, inadequate patient load to ensure recruitment targets (40 new patients to patient registers in the first 4 months of 2014), were pilot clinic sites (n = 4). b One clinic assigned to the SMS arm was under construction and has not opened as scheduled; as such, recruitment targets have been adjusted at the remaining SMS clinics. cParticipants are eligible if they are 18 or older, diagnosed with HIV within the last 12 months, receiving care at a study clinic, and willing to receive communication from study staff. Abbreviations used in the figure: No. = Number; PN = Peer Navigation; SMS = Short Message Service (i.e., Text Message); SOC = Standard of Care
