HIV / AIDS treatment programs have resulted in reduced HIV-related morbidity and mortality. In addition to understanding the factors associated with loss to follow-up, interventions are also needed to prevent it. The purpose of this study was to determine the reduction in the incidence of loss to follow up by giving SMS reminders and educating HIV / AIDS patients. This type of research is a quantitative study with a quasi experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach with a control group on 36 patients who have been doing LTFU at the Bekasi District Hospital. Descriptive analysis was carried out to see the characteristics of the respondents. Bivariate analysis was carried out to assess changes that occurred after the SMS Reminder and education interventions were given. The results of this study indicate that age, sex, occupational status and education level are associated with loss to follow-up, while duration of infection and distance from home to health care providers are not associated with loss to follow-up. There was a significant change in loss to follow-up after two interventions were given.
