If you're demanding they see a doctor then you should be paying for them to do it. Otherwise the employees are losing wages and paying additional fees for the privilege.

Unless an employee has demonstrated that they can't take leave appropriately, you really should get out of their business and let them use the benefits they're entitled to.

What you call a privilege and entitlement is not at all such.

I spent 6 years in the Air Force and the military sends you to sick call for you to be excused from duty. If an employee at MY business doesn't want to follow my policy for sick time, they are at liberty to work elsewhere or not at all.
