I mostly play mid or top lane, and I think mia's definetly should be called. However, you can't always call them. If its an Evelynn I'm facing, I don't bother to call mia's at all, because I don't even know if she's actually gone or just in stealth. Instead, if the enemy laner is a heavy roaming champ (Kat, Eve, Kass, etc), I just say at the beginning of the game "care lanes, Kat will roam a lot". Most of the time mid laners will start roaming around lvl 6-7, so I'll give a shout out when they hit that level. But the most important reasons are:

1. If you call MIA, your retarded teammate will not rage at you later. If you don't call mia, but your teammate died because he was being stupid, that's entirely his fault, but most likely they'll still rage at you. So call mia, and get raged at less.

2. If its blindingly obvious that your enemy laner is going to gank another lane, then by all means ping, and say "mia mid, care top" or something like that. For example, if the enemy laner suddenly decides to push to your tower, then fall back, right when bot lane is overextended, most likely he's gonna go gank bot, so ping as much as you can to tell them to fall back. Or even better, you can follow them and countergank.
