Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiary MTBC Pvt. Ltd and its wholly owned subsidiary MTBCEurope. The non-controlling interest of MTBC Pvt. Ltd is inconsequential to the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |

Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Segment Reporting The Company views its operations as comprising one operating segment. The Chief Operating Decision Maker, which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, monitors and reviews financial information at a consolidated level for assessing operating results and the allocation of resources. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to: (1) impairment of long-lived assets; (2) depreciable lives of assets; (3) allowance for doubtful accounts; (4) contingent consideration, (5) fair value of identifiable purchased tangible and intangible assets, including determination of expected customer life and (6) stock-based compensation. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates. |

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable. Net revenue recorded in the consolidated statements operations represents gross billings after deducting credits and refunds. Medical billing
The Company bills its customers on a monthly basis, in arrears. Approximately 85% and 64% of revenue came from its comprehensive PracticePro product suite for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which includes revenue cycle management, practice management services and electronic health records. Fees charged to customers for the services provided are typically based on a percentage of net collections on the Company’s clients’ accounts receivable. The Company does not recognize revenue for service fees until the Company has received notification that a claim has been accepted and the amount which the physician will collect is determined, as the fees are not fixed and determinable until such time. As it relates to fees charged to PracticePro customers at the outset of an arrangement, the Company charges a set fee which includes account set up, creating a website for the customer, establishing credentials, and training the customer’s office staff. This service does not have stand-alone value separate from the ongoing revenue cycle management, electronic health records and practice management services. The fees are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated customer relationship period (currently estimated to be five years). Other services The Company also generated approximately 7% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 from a variety of ancillary services, including transcription services, patient statement services, coding services, platform usage fees for clients using third-party platforms, rebates received from third-party platforms, revenue from clearinghouse services, EDI services, maintenance and SaaS fees and consulting fees. Ancillary services are primarily charged at a fixed fee per unit of work, such as per line transcribed or per patient statement prepared, and the Company recognizes revenue monthly as it performs the services. This revenue was insignificant for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company’s revenue arrangements generally do not include a general right of return for services provided. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Direct Operating Costs Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Direct Operating Costs Direct operating costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to clients, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to the Company’s services. Costs associated with the implementation of new clients are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating costs include allocated amounts for rent and overhead costs. Depreciation and amortization have not been allocated and are presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs incurred performing market research, analyzing proposed products and developing new products. All such costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $659,176 and $531,676 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Internal Use Software, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Internal-Use Software Costs The Company capitalizes certain development costs incurred in connection with its internal use software. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of intangible assets. Maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Internal use software is amortized on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life, generally three years. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. During 2015 the Company capitalized approximately $60,000 of salaries and payroll-related costs of employees and consultants who devoted time to the development of a new accounting system. The accounting system became operational on January 1, 2016 and accordingly, no amortization was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Selling and Marketing Expenses Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits, travel and advertising expenses and are expensed as incurred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. The Company incurred $203,425 and $103,624 of advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which are included in selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Cash The cash balance includes the remaining amount segregated for the payment of preferred stock dividends of approximately $1.2 million, the balance remaining after the payment of dividends in December, 2015. Although the Company is no longer obligated to retain cash funds for dividends, the Company initially established a separate bank account with approximately $1.3 million, equivalent to the first two years of preferred stock dividends. By December 31, 2015, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA was greater than a full quarter of preferred stock dividends, which allows the Company to utilize these cash balances for any business purpose.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trade and Other Accounts Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. Accounts receivable are presented on the consolidated balance sheet net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is established based on reviews of receivable balances, an assessment of the customers’ current creditworthiness and the probability of collection. Accounts are written off when it is determined that collection of the outstanding balance is no longer possible.
The movement in the allowances for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation for computers is calculated over three years, while remaining assets (except leasehold improvements) are depreciated over five years. The Company amortizes leasehold improvements over the lesser of the lease term or the economic life of those assets. Generally, the lease term is the base lease term plus certain renewal option periods for which renewal is reasonably assured and for which failure to exercise the renewal option would result in an economic penalty to the Company.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Intangible Assets Intangible assets include customer contracts and relationships and covenants not-to-compete acquired in connection with acquisitions, as well as software purchase and development costs. The intangible assets acquired through the second quarter of 2015 are amortized on a straight-line basis over three years, which historically reflected the pattern in which economic benefits were expected to be realized. For customer contracts and relationships relating to the 2015 Acquisitions, amortization was charged using the double declining balance method over three years as the Company concluded that the double declining balance method was more appropriate based on its historical experience as the majority of the cash flows are expected to be recognized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful lives. The effect of this change to an accelerated method of amortization did not have a material effect on the results of operations during the year ended December 31, 2015 and will not have a material effect on future periods. The customer relationships and associated contracts represent the most significant portion of the value of the purchase price for every acquisition. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Including Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its property and equipment and intangible assets for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the asset. There was no impairment of intangibles or property and equipment during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Goodwill The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of October 31st, referred to as the annual test date. The Company will also test for impairment between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment testing for goodwill is performed at the reporting-unit level. The Company has determined that its business unit consists of a single reporting unit. No impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Conditions that could trigger a more frequent impairment assessment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change to the Company in certain agreements, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, loss of customer relationships, an economic downturn in customers' industries, or increased competition. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit is based upon information available regarding prices of similar groups of assets, or other valuation techniques including present value techniques based upon estimates of future cash flows. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired and the second step is unnecessary. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is greater than the implied value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. The fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets. Any excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities represents the implied fair value of goodwill. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Treasury Stock [Policy Text Block] |
Treasury Stock Treasury stock is recorded at cost. During 2015, the Company repurchased 101,338 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $122,031. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Stock-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payments granted and amended based on the grant date fair value. Compensation expense is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. For restricted stock units (“RSUs”) classified as equity, the market price of our common stock on the date of grant is used in recording the fair value of the award. For RSUs classified as a liability, the earned amount is marked to market based on the end of period common stock price. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Business Combinations The Company accounts for business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in the fair value recorded through earnings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets will more likely than not be realized. All available positive and negative evidence is considered in making such a determination, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. A valuation allowance would be recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the Company would not be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount. The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that required recognition. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in income tax expense. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not recognize any penalties or interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in its consolidated financial statements. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dividends [Policy Text Block] |
Dividends Dividends are recorded when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. During November 2015, the Board of Directors declared monthly dividends on the preferred stock through March 2016. Preferred stock dividends are charged against paid in capital because the Company does not have the sufficient retained earnings. The Company is prohibited from paying dividends on its common stock without the prior written consent of its senior lender, Opus Bank. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent Recognition Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Deferred Rent Deferred rent consists of rent escalation payment terms related to the Company’s operating leases for its facilities. Deferred rent represents the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense, which is recorded by the Company over the term of the lease, including any construction period. The excess of the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense is recorded as a deferred credit in the early periods of the lease when cash payments are generally lower than straight-line rent expense, and is reduced in the later periods of the lease when payments begin to exceed the straight-line expense. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue [Policy Text Block] |
Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue primarily consists of payments received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria being met. Deferred revenue includes certain deferred implementation services fees that are recognized as revenue ratably over the longer of the life of the agreement or the estimated expected customer life, which is currently estimated to be five years. Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period is recorded as current deferred revenue and the remaining portion is recorded as non-current. At the time of customer termination, any unrecognized service fees associated with implementation services are recognized as revenue. In connection with the 2015 SoftCare acquisition, the Company recorded approximately $58,000 of deferred revenue representing the fair value of services to be rendered in the future. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Fair Value Measurements ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Company follows a fair value measurement hierarchy to measure financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
The Company’s contingent consideration is a Level 3 liability and is measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has certain financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These financial instruments are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances and include cash, notes receivable, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, borrowings under term loans and line of credit, and notes payable. Due to the short term nature of these financial instruments or that the borrowings bear interest at prevailing market rates, the carrying value approximates the fair value (see Note 17).

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Foreign Currency Translation The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries are translated from their functional currency into U.S. dollars, the Company’s functional currency. All foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate, and all revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The effects of translating the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars are reported as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity, except for transactions related to the intercompany receivable for which transaction adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as they are not deemed to be permanently reinvested. Foreign currency transaction gains/losses are reported as a component of other (expense) income net in the consolidated statements of operations and amounted to gain of $143,333 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and loss of $122,163 for the year ended December 31, 2014. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Initial Public Offering Costs Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Stock Offering Costs Initial public offering costs and preferred stock offering costs consist principally of professional fees, primarily legal and accounting, and other costs such as printing and registration costs incurred in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock in 2014 and the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock in 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company incurred $1,170,582 of costs directly attributable to its IPO which was completed on July 23, 2014. As a result of IPO, additional paid-in-capital was reduced by $2,483,432 of such costs incurred in 2013 and 2014. In connection with the 2015 preferred stock offering, the Company incurred approximately $628,000 of such costs, excluding underwriting commissions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Acquisition Costs [Policy Text Block] |
Acquisition Costs Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred approximately $150,000 and $705,000 of professional fees related to the acquisitions discussed in Note 4, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers which is authoritative guidance that implements a common revenue model that will enhance comparability across industries and requires enhanced disclosures. The new revenue recognition standard eliminates the transaction and industry specific revenue recognition guidance under the current rules and replaces it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. The new standard introduces a five-step principles based process to determine the timing and amount of revenue ultimately expected to be received from the customer. The core principle of the revenue recognition standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This ASU was amended by ASU No. 2015-14, issued in August 2015, which deferred the original effective date by one year; the effective date of this ASU is for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, using one of two retrospective application methods. Early adoption is permitted only as of the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this may have on the consolidated financial statements upon implementation. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The new standard requires that in connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management should evaluate and disclose in the notes to the financial statements whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued (or at the date that the financial statements are available to be issued). If applicable, the Company will be required to disclose (i) the principal conditions or events that raised substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern (before consideration of management’s plans), (ii) management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations, and (iii) either management’s plans that alleviated substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or management’s plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. This standard is effective for the Company’s interim and annual consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2017, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard. In April 2015, the FASB ASU No. 2015-03 Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than as an asset. Application of the standard, which is required to be applied retrospectively, is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2015 and for interim periods within that year. The Company elected early adoption of this ASU and reflected this new requirement in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015. There were no debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2014 and accordingly, no retrospective adjustments were required to the consolidated balance sheet as of that date. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805). The amendments in this ASU require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Additionally, this ASU requires an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, the amendments in this ASU eliminates the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the guidance in this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in this ASU require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that present a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the guidance in this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard will require organizations that lease assets referred to as “lessees” to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard.
