US law prevents them doing so. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became law in 1990. The ADA is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. It covers the fact that a disabled person cannot be asked for proof of their disability be it letters, prescriptions or whatever.

Disney prefer to use the phrase "taking people at their word". Thus abuse of the scheme still happens.
