It's a necessary evil. These airlines are trying to run a business and the few people that have abused it in the past are the reason we have the sick policies. Banging out more than 5 times a year for legitimately being sick isn't common for somebody healthy but it can happen. Keep some documentation in that rare situation and you'll be fine.
