| Summary: | Adherence to medication is very important for HIV patients. If patients are not adherent to
treatment, the risk of disease and drug resistance will worsen. Pillcard administration will be used
as a method to improve medication adherence in patients. The Health Belief Model theory is also
used in assessing patient perceptions of medication adherence. This study aims to determine the
effect of Pillcard administration on patient medication adherence and patient perceptions of
medication adherence. The research method used was experimental research with a preexperimental design type one group pretest-posttest design. This study was conducted from
February to April 2023 and involved 93 HIV patients at one of the public health centers in Bandung
City. Data on medication adherence was obtained from the Medication Report Adherence Scale
(MARS-5) questionnaire and Pillcount. Data on patient perceptions of medication adherence based
on the Health Belief Model theory were assessed using a valid and reliable questionnaire. Statistical
analysis related to the effect of Pillcard on adherence and patient perception will be obtained using
the Wilcoxon signed-rank test method. Pillcard administration here was shown to significantly
improve patient medication adherence both based on assessment using the MARS-5 questionnaire
(p<0.000) and the pillcount method (p=0.001). HIV patients' perceptions of medication adherence
based on the 6 dimensions of the health belief model theory after Pillcard administration also
experienced significant changes. Namely in the perception of perceived vulnerability (p=0.000),
perceived severity (p=0.000), perceived benefits (p=0.008), perceived barriers (p=0.000), perceived
confidence (p=0.001), and cues to action (p=0.000) to treatment adherence behavior.
