Rideshare services have proliferated in recent years, and rideshare interventions are now being used in some HIV clinics to overcome transportation barriers. However, little is known about how PLHIV in the southern US perceive rideshare services and whether they are willing to use them to access HIV care\u2014information that is critical for optimizing the implementation of rideshare interventions. The goal of this mixed-methods study was to examine implementation-related factors relevant to uptake of a concierge rideshare intervention among PLHIV in South Carolina.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 160 PLHIV with self-reported transportation vulnerability were enrolled in a randomized clinical trial to test effectiveness of a concierge rideshare intervention. Prior to intervention implementation, all PLHIV completed brief surveys assessing transportation-related barriers to HIV care and implementation-related factors pertaining to rideshare services. Additional semi-structured individual interviews were also completed by a smaller subset of participants (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200920) to capture personal experiences and insight into perceptions of rideshare services for accessing HIV care.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mean scores indicated favorable perceptions of rideshare interventions across the domains of comfort, ease of use, and safety.
