WeDoctor, an online medical services provider backed by Tencent Holdings Ltd., plans to file a prospectus by October for a Hong Kong IPO that it hopes will raise between $700 million and $900 million, Caixin can reveal.

The windfall would value the money-losing tech company at around $5.5 billion, about the same as a $50 million May funding round.
