Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segments
Segments
Segment identification and selection is consistent with the management structure used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and make decisions regarding resource allocation, as well as the materiality of financial results consistent with that structure. Based on the Company's management structure and method of internal reporting, the Company has one operating segment. The Company's chief operating decision maker does not review operating results on a disaggregated basis; rather, the chief operating decision maker reviews operating results on an aggregate basis.
