Tonight At 6 On ‘Indiana Newsdesk’

Coming up on Indiana Newsdesk:

As Republicans decide what changes to propose to the country's healthcare system, many are wondering if a version of Indiana's Medicaid program could be arriving soon in other states. That's because the designer of Indiana's Healthy Indiana Plan is the head of Medicare and Medicaid. But some say, that system is not perfect. A policy expert is here to talk about the pros and cons of state run Medicaid.

And, you've probably heard of a drug-sniffing dog, but what about a dog trained to sniff out electronics? We visit a dog being trained to uncover evidence that can be hard to find.

Plus, Some Indiana lawmakers want you to be able to go online to get a prescription for glasses or contacts. We'll tell you why some optometrists say the bill is dangerous.

Those stories plus the latest news headlines from across the state at 6 p.m. tonight on Indiana Newsdesk.
